2beskinny 4 Posted February 1, 2011 Forgive me if this post shows up 2x...I wrote it and then it disappeared. Yesterday I got my sixth fill....I HAVE to be close to the sweet spot! I think I was there, but then the fill loosened up a bit (probably due to weight loss). I was feeling pretty close before I went in, but tested myself on some pizza this week...yep...could eat it no problem (at night) so thought a small tweak was in order. She gave me .3 (a little more than I thought I needed) so I'm watching myself carefully. Believe me, I was too tight once and don't want that again. Fortunately my doc is only 20 mins. away so I am lucky in that respect. I'm also very excited because I started on Apidex yesterday, too. My doc uses it as another tool for patients who want an extra tool to lose the last 30-40 pounds. I can't believe I'm actually in that category, but I was happy to start the new program. I have definitely slowed down in the weight loss area and am expecially anxious to lose the next 20 as it will help so much with my running. I am very healthy with no co-morbids so I felt ok aboutt taking the drug for a little while. I have used it before in my weight loss attempts. It works wonders on the ole' appetite, but of course the weight eventually came back. I'm confident it won't happen this time because I also have the lap band to help with things. I've decided that maintenance is when the lapband will really pay off. We all have to work hard to lose weight with the lapband, but it sure will make maintenance a lot easier!
